‘I will say that this tournament has been long in the works and it’s actually conceived some time ago. Basically” he continued, “the whole idea is, Yes we know scrabble as a sport has wide followership in Nigeria, and of course, you know our country is one of the best if not the best in the world so, putting up a competition like this is to contribute to the development of the game. It’s also an avenue to give players the opportunity to come out and play and be able to win some prizes especially as we all know that from last year due to the Covid19 pandemic, there has been a scarcity of competitions and some major tournaments in scrabble. So putting this together is to encourage players to come, play and win prizes & also to encourage new players that may want to come into the game. Don’t forget also that the National Sports Festival is coming up in April so, we also thought that putting it up at this time will afford those attending to use the tournament as a dres’s rehearsal” he said
